Summary of this video by Dr. Tim Adamchuk
Dr. Tim Adamchuk explains the process for patients interested in clear aligners at Morgan Dental Care. During the first visit, photos and digital scans help to develop a personalized orthodontic plan, which is reviewed together at a follow-up appointment. Patients can see a digital preview of how their teeth will move before committing to treatment. Typically, each set of aligners is worn for 7–10 days, with instructions to switch if comfortable or revert if there’s pain. Dr. Adamchuk emphasizes a conservative approach, preferring clear aligners to straighten teeth and preserve enamel over more invasive options like veneers or crowns when possible.

Many people visit Morgan Dental Care in Gorham, ME, searching for a comfortable, discreet way to achieve straighter teeth. Clear aligners could be the convenient solution you’ve been looking for. Join us as we walk through what you can expect, from your first appointment to your final smile reveal.
You Deserve A Clear Plan From The Start
At Morgan Dental Care, every journey of clear aligners starts with a warm welcome and a thorough understanding of your goals. Dr. Tim Adamchuk explains, “When we have a patient who’s interested in clear aligners, what we like to do is bring them in. Oftentimes, we’re going to take some photos, and then we’re going to take some digital intraoral scans of their teeth. We use those photos and scans to then come up with an orthodontic plan for them…and then we’ll bring them back in once the plan’s been made and we’ll review that plan together.”
Dr. Adamchuk goes on to say, “Every patient’s going to be different when they’re going down the road of clear aligners.” We know that orthodontic care should never feel intimidating or rushed. That’s why our team takes time to answer your questions and listen to your concerns. One patient shared, “I was nervous about starting clear aligners, but the staff at Morgan Dental Care explained everything so clearly. They really put me at ease from the beginning.”
Modern Technology At Morgan Dental Care
Once your photos and digital scans are complete, we use advanced technology to map out your unique treatment plan and digitally preview how your teeth will move at every stage. Seeing their future smile before treatment even begins is an exciting moment for many of our Gorham patients! One recalled, “I loved being able to see what my teeth would look like at the end. It made the process feel so much more real and achievable.”
What Does Daily Life Look Like With Clear Aligners?
Once your custom aligners are ready, you’ll pick them up at the office and receive care instructions. Dr. Adamchuk explains the process: “Typically, each set of aligners, patients are going to wear those for 7 to 10 days. After 7 to 10 days, they’ll put a new aligner in…” Using a more personalized approach, we tell our patients to see how they feel the morning after switching aligners. If there’s pain, go back to the previous set for a few days. Most people notice only mild pressure with each new set, which means your teeth are moving as planned.
